www.engineering-abc.com The rapid developments in
mechanical engineering design demarid innovative solutions
to continuously push the frontiers of the achievabie. In
many cases it is na longer enough to start from existing
design methods and techniques. Pioneering new solutions must
be devised ond implemented. An understanding of the
fundamentals of how machine elements work and how they fail
are essential to this purpose. The need to push the
frontiers of what is attainabie may seem contemporary, but
is in fact a continuous process that started many years ogo
and will continue for many years to come. The objective of this book
is to provide guidelines for engineers helping them to
improve machine lifetime performance and reliability. The
first part of this book concerns the fundamentals of "Design
for lifetime performance and reliability", including design
procedures to estimate ond improve machine reliability,
failure analysis. fatigue strength, static ond dynamic load
rating af concentrated contacts, friction phenomena, wear
mechanisms, machine lubrication and material selection. The
second part concerns "Design of high performance and high
tech systems", including the principle of operation.
performance and design of hydrodynomically lubricated
bearings and sliders, viscous dampers, dynamic sealing
systems, hydrostatic bearings, pressurised air bearings and
flexure mechanisms. With newly gained insights the engineer
is better equipped to reach innovative solutions to further
optimize machine lifetime performance, improve machine
reliability end simultaneously to minimize the need of
maintenance. Many design tools, design
charts and guide lines are discussed. User friendiy PC
calculators of the formulae derived in this book are made
availabie, including calculators for calculating fatigue
strength, load capacity, friction, frictional heating and
wear of machine elements in releitive motion. Using these
calculators design engineers will save much time in
determining the outcomes of selecting specific design
parameters. The formulae used in the calculators are also
availabie in Mathcad files, With these files the di!signer
may in a user friendly way adapt or extend calculations for
specific applications. In fact this book is a goldmine of
information for any engineer who intends to improve machine
lifeitime performance and reliability. VSSD-winkel tel. 015-2784125 / fax
